What’s also worrying for me this week is that he can’t find the right setup second day in a row with the car he helped to develop

I’m starting to think that once again the car has been developed around Neuville.

dont want to believe that, as far as i know no team build car around one driver

but what was interesting yesterday in the morning that Neuville said the car is great and Ott said its terrible, lol

Well we did learn at the end of the day that Ott had a transmission problem that he’d carried through the day so I’d take everything he says with a grain of salt.

Have to ask:

Why do you want Ott to MSport?

Yaris seems to be faster than Puma
(even Takamoto is faster than all Ford/Hyundai)

TGR will not run out of development money next year but is Ford giving enough money to MSport next year ?

I know it's not good if all fast drivers are in fast cars.

I also understand that it's good for WRC if every team has proven winner driving but for Ott it would be better if Evans goes to MSport and Ott back to TGR.

"Just my opinion"

Cause Toyota has Kalle and they dont want him, simple as that IMO

i agree with you that Toyota has the best overall car so far this season

Was it Ott who tested today the golden plated roof i20 in Sardegna?

Yeah, clearly, Latvala has no interest on Tanak at the moment ... and even for Neuville, it’s not that simple, personally I wouldn’t take him if I was Toyota boss and if Kalle is champion.
So Neuville and Tanak have only 2 choices really: staying in Hyundai for the money and hope an improvement or trying M-Sport with a pay cut but no guarantee for the car as we know M-Sport is not able to be competitive after 2 years (looking at the situation, I’m quite sure that Hyundai would let at least Tanak leave for M-Sport if he accepts to drop his salary; I don’t think so for Neuville)
In the end, staying with Hyundai is probably the best solution, at least for now.
